Friday, September 11, 2009, 9:00 PM - 10:30 PM | view details and directions
Flesh Tones Burlesque presents History Revealed, Wartime Theater. American culture has been defined by our wars. From our first steps on this land to the multiple wars in the Middle East, American lives have been changed forever. In honor of those who gave their lives for us, we have developed an intimate wartime era review of burlesque, song, belly dance, and performance art/ spoken word examining the drama and inspiration that wars have created in our society. The profits from this show will be donated to The Sons of the Union. Limited VIP seating will feature a re-creation of Ford’s Theater’s Presidential Box ON STAGE, allowing patrons to experience an up close, behind the scenes view that is unlike any other. Amenities will also include personal drink service, two beverages of wine, campaign or beer, strawberries and Cracker Jacks. No theater box experience would be complete without a personalized pair of theater binoculars. This is a great option for a group night out with friends. Pre-sale tickets, for VIP seating and general admission, can be purchased by contacting Cathy Russell at FleshTones@gmail.com. The night will star Oosha Boom, Maiden Sacrifice, Maria the Purple Goddess, Viva La Muerte, Cruel Valentine, Read My Hips, Bizarre Sally, Amy David, Plucky Rosenthal, Miss Kay History Revealed, Wartime Theater Sept 11th & 12th, Doors at 8, show at 9pm Nineteen Hundred and One Gallery 1901 W Belmont, Chicago General Admission is $15, VIP Admission is $25 Benefit Show for Sons of the Union Allow the president to invade a neighboring nation, whenever he shall deem it necessary to repel an invasion, and you allow him to do so whenever he may choose to say he deems it necessary for such a purpose - and you allow him to make war at pleasure. - Abraham Lincoln
